Ok, so no flash loader screen, if you right click do you get flash?
Is there any source code if you do view source?
We usually set xwd to be served as xml?

LOL... Michigan has winter!! Moved here from Scottsdale, AZ!..
Weybridge, Surrey before that!
By no preview, the preview.php window opens. With the "isSet" code in
place, it just is a blank window. The "else" clause in the if(isSet
block is executed (I put an alert in there).
No red or anything I can tell is "bad" in Fiddler. Installed the mime
type .xwd as application/x-xwd (also image/x-xwindowdump). Would the
Fiddler output be helpful?

Michigan's not too bad.
Let me know what you mean by no preview?
any red in fiddler?
you might need xwd mime type as well

Ok, that took the error out of line 47 and the else clause is executed.
But we don't have a preview. Checked mime types and they are in as:
.rlo = flv-application/octet-stream
.rlt = text/xml
printed the following just to see if it meant anything to you:
myRLO = new
rloObject('800','600','modules/xerte/parent_templates/Nottingham/Notting
ham.rlt','USER-FILES/2-guest-Nottingham/',
'USER-FILES/2-guest-Nottingham/preview.xml?time=1268082184',
'http://www.cade-etutor.com/xertetoolkits/' , '')
Just for fun, I copied the preview.php from my other system and got the
same results.

That change removed the error from the initial page, but there are still
errors, both JS and php, in other pages. You know, I can't help but
think a lot of this was caused in the initial installation when I got
the original errors on page4 of the install (bottom of this post).
Anyway, here are some of the errors still coming up:

I'm going to start referring to these by number these because I'm having
different problems on two different systems. Hopefully, the solutions
will both relate.

neweditorwindow = window.open(site_url +

It's caused by the responseText having three undefined variable errors.

Ah, sorry... I was one e-mail off... In regard to the errors on page 4,
that was resolved when I put the database name in database.php. It was
after that, the sitedetails table was populated. You know, the strange
thing was that the host name, user, and password were there, just no
database name.
I've never used fiddler, but I downloaded it and ran edit.php... not
sure what it means but I did get a red line, can't find the following
file:
MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "learnnet"

Nothing is in that directory so makes sense but wondering why it can't
write to that directory. NTFS permissions have been set to full access
for Everyone, Network Services, and IUSR just to make sure.

Your later paragraphs may well reflect the fact your sitedetails table
is basically empty, as your setup failed.
SR: Actually, no. The sitedetails table is full of entries. It was the
php_library_path field that I thought might have been incorrect... turns
out, it wasn't!.. so I put it back.
Well, all page 4 of the installer does is populate this table. So to get
errors - the table wouldn't be populated?
Switching from index to demo will not really achieve anything other than
removing the requirement for LDAP.
SR: Yep, that's what I was going for. The developers will enter through
our LMS and as such will have already been authenticated.
Then ignore demo, and use integration.txt
Locked buttons - in the editor window? that's usually mimetypes, I would
put fiddler on your pc, and see if the xwd is being loaded. I'd expect
to see it appear in red.

Amazing!! Just like magic, thanks! For some reason the database name
was blank in database.php. Switched demo.txt to index.php. Works fine
now... the setup that is. Sad smile emoticon<http://>
Thought I was home free, but tried to create a project. That went fine.
Tried to edit... that didn't. Got a 500 error. Checked properties of
that project. Got a JS error yelling about properties_ajax_php_path
being undefined. Tried edit again... no 500 error but display basically
locked. Not "locked" locked, just the buttons didn't to anything.
Exited the window, go another JS error: on line 30,
window_reference.edit_window_close_path(path)
Figured I had something wrong in the php path, took your #3 suggestion,
and found php_library_path field in sitedetails table set to
website_code/PHP/... thought I missed a config parameter and changed it
to where my PHP install physically resides (c:\program files
(x86)\PHP\)... not a good thing to do! Nothing worked. Decided I
didn't know what the H I'm doing and better post before I destroy more.

PS. php_library_path returned to normal.

Subject: RE: [Xerte] Full install failing on page 4: No database
selected
Hi Steve
I've had this kind of problem on windows/IIS installations too. So a
couple of suggestions but from memory...
1. Try the installation again but before you submit page3 to page
4 check database.php which should be created automatically in the root
of your install but may not have all the correct values. If it doesn't
edit that so that it does and then submit page 3 to page 4.
2. If that all works remember that if you haven't used ldap you
will need to rename index.php and either use switch.txt or demo.txt
renamed to index.php
3. If steps 2 & 3 don't work check the site details table for
errors if some of the paths are incorrect try fixing those in the
database.
Pat may have other suggestions but try this and post back to the list.
HTH

Subject: [Xerte] Full install failing on page 4: No database selected
I'm trying a new full install on Windows Vista with IIS. It creates the
database fine but when I get to the 4th page there are a ton of errors
all ending with no database selected. I've changed the
setup/database.txt file to reflect the current installation (found that
in post) but there is no change in the errors. I basically left the
mysql information on page3.php alone. Can anyone help me to the next
step?
Thanks,
sr
PS. Regarding the discussion of forum vs. e-mail, as a newcomer the
response of the e-mail replies is terrific and very helpful. However,
what I really would like is a way to easily look back at a threaded
discussion on a specific issue... I have many I need to chase and am
reluctant to ask questions about every silly thing that pops into my
head. Today, I used the newly reference search function to find some
information on the problem mentioned above, but it was very difficult to
follow. There are multiple topics in the threads and it's easy to loose
your way... I'm not sure I found all the references.
Is there no way to have your cake and eat it too... (then again what's
the purpose of having the cake in the first place!) where you can e-mail
each post in a forum to the mailing list? You could have your forum
topic areas and those that wanted to follow that route could deal with a
regular forum (sub topics, search threads, etc.) and the mailing list
people still get to receive each post in their e-mail.
